We know Jimmy is a big fan of the Miami Heat, Chicago Cubs, anyone have a clue about which NFL football team he cheers for?
Or better yet. If he owned his own team. What would they be called?
The Keywest Pirates?

He said in an interview before the Aspen show he was rooting for a Saints-Chargers Super Bowl... I think he's a NO guy...

The Oddball Ad-libs of Spider John. Oh, I was a Super Bowl fool, I was a roll-the-dice, a bar stool pigeon...She thought I was a Saint, not a Sinner gone ashtray. Yes, ol' Spider John with the loaded hand, cleaned out the cobwebs in my mind and the bats in the barfly. A Royal Flush was the order of the evening.

Samuel Adams was the first man to take up drinking and play two sports, baseball and football. He was a Brewer and a Patriot.

I hope his Nashville roots arise from the ashes to help the Titans beat the Saints next season in NO.

Jimmy's got more New Orleans roots than Nashville (weedy) roots. Come on. That's not even funny. The Titans? Come on - everyone knows the old Houston Oilers will never win any Super Bowl!
JB a Patriot's fan? In the heart of Yankee land, all those Yankee people and bad tea up there? Talk about the opposite of the South! Come on! The closest NFL team to Pascagoula and Mobile is the New Orleans Saints.
I know Jimmy is a Heat fan but they actually win games. The Dolphins are just an excuse to have a football stadium in Miami. At least lately. Now people are talking about the Saints 'deserving' a new stadium. After they just fixed the Superdome for 9,250,000,000 FEMA dollars? The Superdome is fine. In fact, it's the best it's ever been. And if they did build another stadium in New Orleans, it'll not only help the city sink even more but it had better serve as a backup levee - it would probably do better than any levee in North America anyway because the Army Corps Of Liars wouldn't have anything to do with it.

I was being sarcastic about the Nashville roots, because I get the feeling Jimmy's not that crazy about the Nashville atmosphere after some of his experiences there, therefore his "roots" would basically come back to haunt him. Again, a joke, but I digress.
If you watched a Titans game this year you would know Vince Young is the real deal, and if the Titans can get a few defensive spots shored up over the offseason, they'll be a serious playoff contender.
After all, the "old Houston Oilers" aren't the same as the "new Titans". Who thought the Titans would win 8 games this year (and nearly beat the Colts a second time and the Ravens, as well) and be within a few plays of being IN the playoffs? I think at least a little credit should be acknowledged there.

...Jimmy Buffett, per his phone call from Timbuktu to Radio Margaritaville today.

The Dolphins are just an excuse to have a football stadium in Miami.

I think Dan Marino is drawing one with MS Paint as we speak.
